A Sports Elixir for Super-human performance

Advantages: Effective - it really does give you a boost of energy, tastes good for an isotonic drink, replenishes lost electrolytes
Disadvantages: Expensive, probably bad for your teeth, contains artificial sweetener aspartame

...and Acesulfame K, I personally accept that they are used to help make the drink taste better, but the fact the drink contains these two additives may put the truly health conscious off. If cost is an issue in buying Lucozade sport, then the best suggestion I can offer is too look at powdered isotonic drinks such as Isostar which is less effective but more economical. The only solution I can suggest to the other two problems with the product is to forget about performing like a super-human and drink water. To conclude, I think that Lucozade sport is probably the best tasting and most effective isotonic drink around at the moment. If you are into sports and want to perform like a super-human or just like a human, then I can highly recommend trying Lucozade sport....

  Wii Resort For Island Sports

Advantages: Some great mini-games that really show off the MotionPlus accessory
Disadvantages: Expensive to fully kit out two remotes. One or two less compelling mini-games

...INTRODUCTION Our Nintendo Wii has been hibernating under our TV, gathering dust since shortly after Christmas. The Wii party games made a brief appearance for the holidays and the shine of Wii Fit wore off after our New Year?s resolutions met with their usual success and longevity (i.e. none). It?s a fab console, but it?s very ease of ?pick up and play? makes it just as easy to ignore in favour of other pursuits. However, we were intrigued by the promise and novelty of the new Wii MotionPlus gadget, and when Wii Sports Resort (WSR) ? essentially Wii Sports 2 ? was announced, it was immediately added to our Wish List. As such, I was delighted when I received it for my birthday last week, and It has played a part in our nightly entertainment since. WHAT?S IN THE BOX WSR comes packaged with the game (in its own DVD...

A Super Food.

Advantages: Quick and Easy
Disadvantages: Some are nice others are bland.

...Batchelors Super Noodles The less you eat whilst working nights the better. So as a long time shift worker these are just perfect. Until a few weeks ago you could pick up 3 packets for a £1 at Tescos but now they have hiked up the price to 3 for £1.20. A 20% increase! They come in several flavours; Barbecue Beef (Very Tasty), Mild Curry (V.T), Chicken (V.T), Thai Curry (V.T), Spicy Salsa (V.T), Southern Fried Chicken (V.T). Bacon (V.T), Mushroom (Plain), Spaghetti Bolognese (Plain) Chow Mien (Plain), Sweet and Sour (Bland), Balti (Bland), Tex Mex (Bland), The taste varies and there are some that I found Very Tasty, Plain to quite Bland but in general most of the various flavours are very tasty. Cooking them could not be simpler, Just open the packet, pop it in a pan with a mug of water and cook until...

Sky Sports News

Advantages: Dedicated Sports News
Disadvantages: Repetition

...So here's a TV channel that's been reviewed plenty of times by plenty of people, yet few get fed up of reading about it?? Why? Because it's the freeview-made-famous station Sky Sports News. Available on Freeview channel 83 and Sky channel 405, it's a 24-hour rolling news station because, apparently, sports warrants this much coverage. Or perhaps more cynically, Sky pump that much money into their sports coverage, a 'news' channel is the least they can provide to the majority for free with having to subscribe to their sports package. Hosted by two newsreaders, normally a man and a woman, although some times it can be just same-sex pairings, they do all the things any normal news station would do. Deliver the headlines, breaking news and in-depth interviews with important figures from the world of sport. The on...

super citi sport!

Advantages: you can push it anywhere!!
Disadvantages: can be too small for older children

...I am now onto my second citi sport! I had one for my first child a few years back when they where new out and wouldn't want anything else for public transport! I use buses on a regular basis and needed something which folded with one hand. And it does this very well, once you have got used to the procedure. And another plus, it stands up without having to lean it against a wall etc. Ideal for standing at bus stops! It is also really lightweight to get on public transport. One problem with the citi sport is it's small size. It's a little too small for the older child. When my daughter was 3 it was a problem getting her in and out of it., though she was comfortable once in. I think it's the non removable bumper bar causing this. The basket is also fairly small so even though this is a shopping stroller it hasn't much space...

Behind Enemy Lines

Advantages: Entertaining the whole way through
Disadvantages: Slightly on the budget side

...Last night Behind enemy lines was on Film Four and I thought I?d give it ago, I had never heard of the film before and so did not know what to expect, I always give the info on the TV a read before getting into a new film as unfortunately I am one of the Biased people of the world who find a film more worth trying if it has good actors and a good synopsis. Judging a book by its cover and all that (slap on the wrists). First impressions Before the film had started I had my doubts, the cast of actors includes Owen Wilson, and after seeing more than a fair share of his films, I was doubtful to whether he could pull off what was being described on the TV info as an ?action/thriller? I have never seen him in a serious role and although this gave doubts it also intrigued me into seeing the film and made me want to see if he would fail...

Review of Behind Enemy Lines (DVD)

Quite Litteraly super

Advantages: Gameplay, Graphics, imagination,design
Disadvantages: suits hard to control

...Finally, the game all wii owners have been waiting for, and it doesn't dissapoint, Super Mario Galaxy is possibly one of the greatest video games of all. You can't not love it, whether your a hardcore gamer or a child. The story starts in a fairly familiar way Bowser kidnapps Princess Peach and Mario sets out to save her. However from then on Mario needs to travel into different galaxies to collect power stars, which allow Rosalina to see further on into the universe. This continues until Mario has ollected enough power stars so Rosalina can see Bowser in the centre of the universe. When you travel to a galaxy they are a joy to explore you jump from tint planets to other tiny planets where the gravitational forces pull you in. Another way of traveling to another planet is via pull stars, what you do is hold the A when the pointer...

Super Show!

Advantages: Teaches letter and word recognition, fun to watch, updates classic stories
Disadvantages: Annoying songs throughout!

...Since becoming a mum, I've become more familiar with children's television shows than I ever cared to be. I'm happy that Harry favours more of the traditional shows such as Fireman Sam, Postman Pat, Bob the Builder and Noddy, but occasionally he stumbles across a more modern show that he falls in love with. Sky television channel Nick Jnr airs an original American show called "Super Why" a few times a day, and its become a regular watch for us, and is often found on our Sky Plus recording list as well! Super Why is a show aimed at toddlers aged from around 3 years old, and encourages the learning of reading and recognising letters and words through interactive stories. It's an interesting concept, and one I've finally gotten my head around after quite a few watches. Although the show started in America, it's been dubbed for English...

A super book

Advantages: tactile book
Disadvantages: Overlapping bits can be damaged

...The Super sandwich I teach children wioth Special Needs and whenever we are involved in a topic try to find sensory materials, and this includes books. I found this book when we were doing a topic on food, and bought it along with the other book in the series-The Incredible cake. Although the books retail for £5.99, I bought these in a discount bookstore and they cost £5 for the two, so I wasn't complaining. The books thamselves are square shaped, and are therefore easy for little hands to hold. They have a thick and almost padded front and back cover making them instantly appealing for children to hold because they just don't feel like books usually do. The front cover is covered almost entirely with a picture of a slice of bread and behind the front cover, we can see different foods poking out at the top and to the side...
