Logitech V250 Cordless Mouse and Number Pad

Advantages: no need to use the touchpad on a notebook
Disadvantages: cannot store USB wireless connector within the mouse

...As an IT Business Consultant I get to do a fair amount of travel to different client sites. To allow me to function effectively my company has issued me with a top of the line laptop. Not the one I've reviewed in the past but a new one. I'll review that in a week or two once I've had a good chance to put it through its paces. Unfortunately no matter how great the laptop, there are a couple of things I hate about laptops in general:- having to use the touch pad and having to enter numbers into a software application such as a spreadsheet. All the laptops I've ever used have this touch pad below the set of keys on the keyboard where you trace your finger on the pad and this moves the mouse pointer about on the screen. To select an item on the screen you have to press a button usually located below the touch pad and this I find very...

Fantastic 360/PC Pad!

Advantages: Great layout, comfortable and easy to use.
Disadvantages: Confusing marketing, crappy D-pad. (wires)

...Refinement: The Xbox 360 wired controller is a refined version of the original Xbox controller S. Taking design hints from the Gamecube controller it was smaller and more ergonomic than the original black brick that was the original design, making it more appealing to a Japanese audience, the pad was so well received they brought it over to the US and Europe. Looks: The Xbox 360 wired controller is a stylish white with a grey band on the underside of the controller. The face buttons are green, red, yellow and blue matching that of the original Xbox design. There is a metallic Xbox button surrounded by a green glowing ring of light in the centre of the controller, which has four quadrants one of which lights up depending on your player number. The analogue sticks and D-pad are grey as is the cord. The pad will look fine just...

Avent Breast Pads

Advantages: Saves money over disposables
Disadvantages: Bulky

...When I started breastfeeding I bought the Johnson & Johnson disposable pads. They were great, but at close to £3 for a 15 day (maximum) supply, were getting expensive. After doing some research on the net I discovered that washable pads were available. I bought a pack of 6 Avent pads at Boots for £4.99. They are made of a soft material with a waterproof backing & have a lacy side which aswell as looking a bit more feminine serves the purpose of 'gripping' the inside of your bra to make them more secure. They come with a small net in which to wash them so that they don't get lost among your laundry (vital if you don't want one whizzing out your sleeve in public when you take your freshly washed cardigan etc off!). I've been breastfeeding for 3 months now & there's no telling how much money I've saved. Since they are not tapered...

Play with Galt numbers puzzles

Advantages: good simple puzzles
Disadvantages: none

...You can buy this set of 10 number puzzles for £4.99 from http://www.childsplaysussex.co.uk/galt-number-puzzles-3353-0.html . It is available for similar prices from other shops too. I think at present these puzzles come in a red box that has a carry handle, ours at work does not have this handle. This set of ten puzzles is suitable for children aged 3 to 5 years old, or those older who have problems with recognising number. These puzzles are made of a thick card and withstands quite a bit of wear, so should last quite a time. Each individual puzzle is a single number and is a three piece rectangular puzzle. The top piece of the puzzle is the numeral the centre piece which is the largest has a picture that corresponds to the number so for example on number 1 there?s is 1 spaceship, on number 5 there are 5 hats . The bottom...

Puppy Training Pads - Whatever next?

Advantages: They contain spills and protect carpets
Disadvantages: You shouldn't really need them if you follow the basic rules.

...the need to use the toilet. The manufacturers say once you find out where your puppy prefers to go to the toilet you can gradually decrease the number of pads you use. The pads also have 'built in deodorisers' to control odours. Do they work? Well I suppose they do in that they do soak up the urine and protect the carpet underneath and they are easy to dispose of. To be honest as I have had puppies before I do find it relatively easy to spot the tell tale signs when a puppy needs to go outside to go to the toilet. Plus I follow the rules of putting him outside as soon as he wakes and after a feed and I found that during the first week here we only had two instances when he toileted indoors anyway which makes it hard for me to judge. You can do just the same with newspaper but liquids do soak through newspaper and sometimes...

A Load of Number Twos

Advantages: A couple of tracks aren't too bad
Disadvantages: Most of them are pretty lame

...'t sound all that interested again. Like others earlier on the album, this is another long track and again one that I'd lost interest in long before the final note. There's a drum beat at the start of "Deluxe" that reminds me of Terence Trent D'Arby's "Sign Your Name", but the music on this is more like a lounge act than anything else. The vocals are more varied than on most of the tracks, but with very little variation in the guitar lines, it does drag out a little, especially with a running time of more than four minutes once more. Thankfully at this point the album is over and I'm not at all sad to reach the end. Admittedly, when you go into an album (or, indeed, anything) with certain expectations, as I did here, the chance of disappointment is always increased. However, even had I put "Number One" on with a clear mind, I suspect I...

Review of Number 1 - Racine

Just a number?

Advantages: Jim Carrey without the comedy faces
Disadvantages: Jumps about a lot

...Jim Carrey once again shows his ability to play it straight in this psychological thriller. If you can get passed his normal comedy roles and take him seriously that is! Director Directed by Joel Schumacher who's previous films include Flatliners, The Lost Boys, St Elmos Fire, and more recently Phone Booth. Titles The film starts with the actors names etc flashing up on a typed manuscript along with numerous references to the number 23. Historical dates and events of disasters that have connections or add up to the number. This starts your mind thinking about how this can be before the film even starts. Storyline Jims character is a dog catcher called Walter Sparrow whose wife Agatha buys him a tattered book for his birthday called 'The Number 23' The film then follows Walter as he reads the book. The film is narrated...

Review of The number 23 (DVD)

Breast Pads for your breasts not your bra!

Advantages: Don't show under clothing, reusable, easy to clean
Disadvantages: Difficult to put on, not very sticky, not very discreet to use in public

...a tenner just to solve that issue though and, frankly, I didn't find them beneficial for any other reason. I wouldn't recommend using them on a daily basis. They are impossible to remove and replace discreetly. I had perfected the knack of feeding in public by baby number two but, because Lilpadz are plastic, they can't just be shoved aside gently like a typical breast pad. You would need to actually fish them off your breasts to feed your baby! I've already explained the problems that I found trying to get them to stick so, again, this would be a real problem when feeding in public. Perhaps there is a knack to using Lilypadz but, if so, I didn't develop it and would advise other people to save their money!...

My number

Advantages: Easy to fix and helps people find us
Disadvantages: None yet

...Black number After himself had finished making the fence and gates for the back of the house, he decided we had best get a number put onto the fence, so took himself off to get one. Not being especially concerned about a number I was rarely going to take any notice of because I know where i live, i was however quite impressed by his choice. THE NUMBER... The number itself is a 4" black number with just the right amount of "twirl" at the bottom of the number 5. This makes it pleasant to look at and not overly formal but at the same time not so fancy that it is almmost unrecognisable as a number. It is made of metal and has been cast and powder coated to make it black. Contained in the packet are two screws for attaching the number to a surface, and these are also black, so when it is fixed in place, they just merge in as part...

Whos Bad!!!!! Michael Jacksons Number Ones.

Advantages: A lot of the good old songs he sang.
Disadvantages: his life at the moment.

...I am writing this review and opinion as a fair one, I have my personal opinions on him but this is not what this is about. No matter what has gone on in the past, Michael Jackson is a legend. He even has a monkey named after me lol. My next door neighbour from my last place idolises him and will not hear a bad thing said against him so for Christmas I decided to get her the Michael Jackson Number Ones. Now Ciao, tut, tut, if your trying to catch me out to see if I have got this cd, then I must point out to you that you have the wrong picture on the review heading. Ciao shows it as Michael jumping sideways. This is actually one of the pictures inside the cd and is not the main cover. The CD Cover -------------------- Very basic, white front and back cover with a picture of Michael Jackson with his had on his head...
