The Junction - Cambridge

Advantages: Diverse entertainment
Disadvantages: Semi-grim location

...Morrissey could sing about something dire and teenage happening beneath it. Still, up ahead is another nice avenue of trees...but you have to turn left. And left again. A few minutes of disappointed trudging will bring you to an anonymous industrial estate, wherein lurks The Junction. And there you were, thinking Cambridge was nothing but dreaming spires. (That's Oxford anyway, but you get my drift). The Junction is Cambridge's "second" multi-arts venue, and can be considering a smidge less conservative and a tad more interesting than the larger, "waiting room for the next life" Corn Exchange. Extensively refitted and augmented (as part of the large Cattle Market development) in the last few years, it has three venues on site; the main Junction 1 largely for club or live music nights (not bad, occasionally a sonic nightmare, capacity 850...

villanova junction

Advantages: great rare tracks, good mix of songs
Disadvantages: maybe not ideal for people new to hendrix

...villanova junction is a collection of hendrix rarities that was issued on a limited release, so although this isnt a completely rare cd to own, it isnt as easily available as other hendrix albums. there are seven songs which are: 3 little bears, an upbeat song with silly lyrics, you can hear Jimi saying how silly he thinks the song is so he od=rders the band to eamlessly transform the song into 'south saturn delta', which is Hendrixdebut into serious jazz. belly button window. an alternate version of the song from 'first rays of the new rising sun' in which hendrix messes up the lyrics at the end. country blues. a comprehensive blues instrumental in which he goes througha huge range of licks from relatively straight blues to his trademark feedback and flair. hear my train a comin. an excellent up tempo version of one...

Review of Villanova Junction - Jimi Hendrix

Panasonic Lumix TZ6, Versatile compact with great image quality

Advantages: Fantastic little camera with 12 x zoom & 10.1MP (better than TZ5), but cheaper than TZ7
Disadvantages: No HD movie mode, not very cheap

...The Panasonic Lumix TZ6 is a great little camera that I have used to compliment my large DSLR (a Nikon D90 I have also reviewed), which is too big and expensive to be taken everywhere. Specification The TZ6 is compact camera with 10.1 MP, which is plenty of pixels for all but the larger prints and harshest crops. This means that in normal conditions there will never be pixelation, in fact too many megapixels squashed onto a sensor can actually reduce the image quality. The most important feature of this camera is the 12x zoom, 25mm wide angle, Leica lens. Leica is a quality brand, and this lens is no exception, it produces quality images and the lens slides out of the camera quickly and smoothly. There is no lens cap, but slide across covers, as in most other digital compacts. Design For such a versatile camera, it is...

Review of Panasonic Lumix DMC-TZ6

Panasonic Lumix TZ6 - metal-bodied compact zoom

Advantages: Sturdiness, Ease of use, Autofocus Tracking
Disadvantages: Overshadowed by the TZ7, Tries to do everything for you

...I always find it a little strange when a company releases two similar models at the same time, especially when the price difference is only around £40. The Panasonic Lumix TZ6 and TZ7 are similar stable-mates, with the TZ7 being the superior of the two. Having said that, the extra features of the TZ7 are things I can quite comfortably live without, such as the superior video capability with stereo sound, an HDMI output, and the ability of the camera to recognise up to 15 of your friends when they appear in a picture. Why would I want that? I don't have 15 friends - and even if I did, I'm sure I could remember them myself! The TZ6 is aimed at people who want to take nice pictures but don't really want to know how those pictures are achieved. Almost everything is designed to be automatic and intuitive, and there is some pretty...

Review of Panasonic Lumix DMC-TZ6

Get your kicks from errr... Root 6

Advantages: Powerful, Portable, Looks like a space-gun
Disadvantages: Price,. Noise

...(with apologies to the Rolling Stones) It's not a Dustbuster(tm), because that's a trademark. And besides which, to put it in the same league as a Dustbuster(tm) would be unfair. No, the Dyson Root 6 should truly be called a handheld vacuum cleaner. "Why?" I hear you ask... well let me tell you. Dyson, as anyone that hasn't been living under a rock for the last 10 years will know, shot to fame with their revolutionary "bagless" Hoover(tm). Only you can't call it a Hoover(tm) because that's a trademark too. Bagless technology meant that there was no loss of power as the poor vacuum motor had to suck air through an increasing mass of dirt. It effectively meant that the suction power of a vacuum cleaner was increased. Not only that, but if you made the dust collection bin clear than you could see all of the dust and fluff whirling...

Ford Focus 1.6 Zetec

Advantages: A great car from all angles
Disadvantages: Not as many extras included as I would have liked

...I am now the proud owner of a ford focus 1.6 zetec and for the first time in many years I have actually found a car that pretty muc suits all my needs. I have spent many a time in cars that are too big, too small, not suitable, not comfortable etc but this is everything I could ask for. I own the three door version but the doors open widely and when the front seat is moved forward there is plenty of room to get anyone in the back, even my mother in law who is disabled. The back of this car is extremely spacious, comfortably fitting 3 large adults in. The boot size is deceiving in that it looks pretty small but is very spacious indeed. Perfect for all those shopping bags as well as a childs pushchair. The actual drive of this car is superb. Mine runs on unleaded and is very economical. I can get over 200 miles to £35...

Junction One is Growing

Advantages: Only Outlet Shopping Village on Island of Ireland
Disadvantages: Still not a big enough selection of shops

...Junction One has now been opened for more that 2 years and is now undergoing many changes. At the time of this review there are 55 stores in Junction One these include names such as Next, M&S, Adidas, Rebock, Levis, Nike, Polo Ralph Lauren and many more. However Junction one are currently expanding the shopping centre to include over 75 stores, 10 new cafes and restaurants, a hotel, a cinema complex and an Asda hypermarket. Already opened are the Restaurants, The Red Panda and Antrim Park and another welcome addition is a huge Homebase Store opening in October 2006. These additions are very welcome as it will enable people to spend a whole day at Junction One as apposed to only a few hours shopping. However it is frustrating that several huge stores have remained unoccupied since Junction One opened in 2004 and today around 10 stores are...

Ford Focus 1.6 - Shocking!!

Advantages: Handling and Looks
Disadvantages: Customer Service, Bodywork, Transmission...

...Two years ago I decided to buy a brand new car, and after much research I decided upon the Ford Focus 1.6 (old style now). Everything I had read pointed towards a really good choice. So I went into my local Ford dealer and a week later I had my nice new car. First thoughts were a good looking car, well built, fantastically smooth to drive, held the roads amazingly well. All of the equipment worked wonderfully well and I absolutley loved my new car. Then the problems began.... After two weeks the Airbag Modulator failed, so I went back to the dealer, and they replaced the faulty part within a few days. They wouldn't let me have a courtesy cat so was left hanging around the dealers for a few hours. All work was under warranty so no cost to me. Three weeks after the Modulator fault I was washing the car and noticed tiny rust spots...

Stuck At A Junction?

Advantages: Covers all aspects in detail, coloured maps and screenshots
Disadvantages: Details are crammed, small font size

...nice but not all places are mapped out this way, and at times the walkthrough opts for a single map produced by themselves. Given the pre-rendered background nature of the game these are helpful at a glance, and both are used for the trickier mazes. In the case that the part is strictly linear there may be no map at all, but the text is sufficient. CHAPTER 5. JUNCTION All aspects concerning Guardian Forces, Abilities and Magic, featuring an introduction to the GFs complete with a picture of how they appear in the game and many tables of the abilities that GFs can learn. CHAPTER 6. MONSTERS All the monsters are here as you encounter them (not strictly). Description and information for each accompanied with an in-game picture. Given the game's nature where the monsters power up as you do, they given a table of examples of HP...
