Advantages: Brad Pitt, George Clooney, Las Vegas Disadvantages: None
...Ocean's Eleven
Brad Pitt, George Clooney and a whole host of other good looking guys planning the crime heist of the century, what more could you want from a movie! Ocean's Eleven is actually a 2001 remake of the 1960 Rat Pack caper film of the same name. I've never seen the original but I would like to so I can compare the two.
What's the ocean got to do with it? Is it set by the beach? No, Danny Ocean is the name of the game leader who collects together all his friends to rob three casinos in Las Vegas. And why eleven, why there are eleven people who carry out the crime. Danny has the perfect friends in order to carry out this job, one is a fixer, another a blackjack dealer, another a pickpocket, all worthy occupations to help you scam casinos out of $150 million!! Danny is played brilliantly by the gorgeous George Clooney. He is so...
Advantages: Great smell! Disadvantages: Doesn't clean stubborn stains that it claims to do.
...Nowadays I tend to buy cleaning products that are on special offer. This is one such product that I bought yesterday in Morrisons, priced at only £1 as opposed to £1.97 for a 1 litre bottle although in Asda it is even more expensive at £2.10.
This is also available in Orchid although having had a sniff of both in the shop, I opted for the Ocean version.
- What does the packaging say? -
~ Floor cleaner and All Purpose Cleaner.
~ Ideal for linoleum, vinyl and ceramic tiles.
~ Formulated to cut through stubborn dirt.
~ Residue free.
~ Leaves a brilliant shine.
- Packaging -
This comes in a transparent bottle with a screw top lid and handle on the bottle which helps with the pouring.
- Smell and Appearance -
This is a green liquid with a great smell. It's name is Ocean but rather than smelling of the oceans...
...Ocean?s Eleven can be summed up in one word: cool. The cast, the atmosphere, the dialogue and the interaction ooze cool, but then that is not surprising when it involved five of the smoothest operators of the early-60s. Frank Sinatra, Dean Martin, Sammy Davis Jr., Peter Lawford and Joey Bishop, a.k.a. the Rat Pack, who are on top form and appear to love every minute they are up on screen.
Directed by Lewis Milestone, the man responsible for the 1930 anti-war classic All Quiet on the Western Front, Ocean?s Eleven had a severely punishing schedule. According to the trivia, most of the photography was completed before sunrise, due to some of the actors also having shows in Las Vegas that they performed nightly during the shooting. The actors would wake up in the afternoon, do one or two shows in the evening, then go through make...
...Oceans 12 is the Steven Soderbergh sequel to the successful film, Oceans 11. It continues the adventures of Danny Ocean and his crew of criminals.
In this film, Danny and his crew are hunted down by casino owner, Terry Benedict , who demands they return the £150 million, which they stole from him three years ago, plus interest of £38 million, within two weeks or face his deadly wrath. Danny and his crew decide to pull of a major job in Europe in order to be able to pay Benedict back in full, but face a rival in another thief, Francois Toulour, known as "The Night Fox", who challenges them to steal a famous work of art before he does. Danny and his crew must beat Toulour so they can pay off their debt to an irate Benedict and prove their ability as world class thieves. However Europol agent, Isabel Lahiri could throw a spanner in their...
Advantages: Funny, witty, entertaining, I could go on Disadvantages: None
...Ocean's Eleven is a remake of the 1960 film of the same name starring Frank Sinatra, Dean Martin and Sammy Davis Jr. Danny Ocean (George Clooney) has just been released from prison, but already has his next heist planned, and it's a big one. He plans to rob three Las Vegas casinos, The Bellagio, the Mirage and the MGM Grand, all in one night. He assembles a crack team including a pickpocket, a pyrotechnician, a technical whiz and, of course, a Chinese acrobat. Will he be able to pull off the biggest heist in history?
This film probably has one of the best casts of any movie ever, with a perfect balance of new talent (Casey Affleck, Scott Caan), established superstars(George Clooney, Brad Pitt, Matt Damon, Andy Garcia) and old school legends (Elliott Gould, Carl Reiner). Everyone is on top of their game here, with fantastic chemistry...

Advantages: Lots to see and do, original, good value for money Disadvantages: None
...Myself and my boyfriend recently went to holiday in Bangkok Thailand and while we were there we visited the Siam Ocean World.
Location
The Siam Ocean World is located on the first and second floors of the Siam Paragon Shopping centre which is pretty much in the middle of the City of Bangkok.
Siam Ocean World
The entrance consists of the ticket booths where visitors can purchase their tickets. The tickets vary in price depending on what you want to see when you get in. WE decided we wanted to see the 4D Theatre, the Glass Bottom Boat and the Aquariums. For this ticket we paid £8 which we thought was reasonable.
Just inside the entrance to Siam Ocean World, there is a gift shop called Shark Shop where you can purchase the normal merchandise of key rings, paperweights and mugs etc.
Just to the left of the entrance, there is...
Advantages: Some strong tracks present on this thirteen track album. Disadvantages: Some tracks fail to impress.
...'Ocean Avenue' is the 2004 album from the American Pop Punk band Yellowcard. Although fitting snugly into the genre of Pop Punk, the band actually incorporate a violin into their sound and this is something that makes them stand out a little from the crowd. When you listen to the music of Yellowcard it is not your standard Pop Punk affair and therefore their music is all the more interesting to listen to.
The first track I ever heard from this album was 'Life of a Salesman', a track that initially put me off listening to 'Ocean Avenue' as I was not at all a fan of what I heard. With 'Life of a Salesman' there is just too much going on within the track at once and as a result it all seems a little congested as the band progress their way through this three minute piece of Pop Punk. The drums just don't seem to fit with the guitars...
Advantages: Astonishingly brilliant graphics Disadvantages: Seems to be no set goals
...My brother borrowed Endless Ocean off one of his friends and being the great big sister I offered to play on it with him for a bit the other night.
Your character for the entire game is a diver and your task as far as I can tell is to complete as many dives as possible and complete small missions. The game begins with you getting the option to choose your character. Now I have to admit that the options here are limited and to be honest you only really get to choose whether your character is a man or a woman and what colour hair they have but I suppose it is better than nothing.
Once the game begins you are walked through the movement of your diver both on the boat and in the water. The controls are very simple to master and the walkthrough makes this process even easier.
Now the game starts and you are tasked to dive in...
Advantages: Good 5 star hotel, super food Disadvantages: A long walk to town centre
...Madeira is an island in the Atlantic Ocean, sometimes called the Pearl of the Atlantic or the floating garden, the flowers are magnificent here and it is a very green island, because of the careful usage of water and the mild climate.
This was our third visit to Madeira - we like it, as it's warm without being too hot, the people are so friendly and the food and wine is good too!
