Justified and Ancient

Advantages: Well paced
Disadvantages: Little character development

...Justified and Ancient (The Ancient - R.A. Salvatore) IainWear Name: IainWear Product: The Ancient - R.A. Salvatore Date: 17/06/09 (33 review reads) Rating: Advantages: Good story, with plenty of action Disadvantages: Too many plot strands early on One of the first fantasy trilogies I ever read was R. A. Salvatore's "Forgotten Realms: Icewind Dale" trilogy, featuring the dark elf Drizzt Do'Urden. All this time later and Salvatore is still writing novels with fighting high on the agenda and I find that I can still enjoy them, although not quite as much as I did in my younger years. In the Northern land of Alpinadoon, the leader of the Samhaist religion, Ancient Badden, has reclaimed the holy lake of Mithranidoon. Out in the waters of this holy lake, he is dismayed to find that barbarians, powrie dwarves and - even worse...

R.A. Rheumatoid Arthritis and how I cope.

Advantages: Its severity can vary a lot from person to person
Disadvantages: Too many to mention

...I have been wanting to write this or a while now but finding the words has been very hard, plus I have been suffering from a severe bout of joint swelling or what we call a flare up. Before I go any further I would just like to quote a few statistics about Rheumatoid Arthritis. One in every 100 people in the U.K. suffer from this disease, thats a lot of people but because of the way the didease operates its severity can vary so much, a lot of people can have it and not know and never will. If you take 100 people that have been diagnosed with R.A. 20 percent will have the mildest form of the disease, it will not worsen and some poeple wont know they have got it at all apart form a bit of stiffness maybe. 75 percent of the 100 will have joint pain, this can be aggravating and may mean they need to take medication, they will...

Integra Type R.....a legend

Advantages: Race Spec, addictive, so reliable, well looked after cars
Disadvantages: hard to get hold of. only enthusiasts may apply. can be expensive when go wrong

...im now 21 and since 11 my dream car has always been a Subaru imprezza and now early 20?s im now after a car with some go in it. I looked up an integra type R from Honda and it just seemed the car for me and having herd that it is a substitute for a Scooby, it had to be ideal. I spent a good 3-4 months looking for 1 as the car is so rare and quite expensive as there are only something like 1500 UK spec integras made for the UK and are so reliable and keep there value, as soon as 1 is for sale, u can garuantee a que of people are after it!!! So get there fast. Finally I got 1, from a dealer in Kent. This car is a dream, red comfy recaro seats in the front, sports pedals and gear knob and carbon fibre effect dash and now for the performance hehehe? you cannot knock this car at all, from just a 1.8 engine it packs 190bhp, has a 0...

Peace on earth

Advantages: Read op
Disadvantages: Read op

...As I was tidying out some old junk, I found a poem that I wrote 8 years ago when I was at school for one of my lessons. I thought I would post it on Ciao as it is kind of relevant to current issues. Please bare in mind it was written when I was much younger and it is very small and simple and I haven't edited it any way. So here it is... Peace on earth On this earth so cruel and fierce, People fight and kill and destroy. The I.R.A they bomb innocent creatures, With horrible weapons and unnoticeable features. Why they do this I don?t know? I wish they?d stop I wish for sure. I wish they?d make peace and love, Instead of killing what is the good. Racism occurs all over the place, Black people get called things to their face. Why does this happen? Why is this so? They?re just the same as us, their blood is the same...
