...Tronic 3 In 1 Detector It detects for wood, metal and electric tension in the walls of your home. I bought this product recently, and can’t believe I did without it. Just thinking about the danger I put myself in knocking nails into the wall, putting up pictures and shelves, all the time not knowing if there were electric wires in the wall or whether there was a joist there to support shelves. The Tronic also works on floors and ceilings. It finds wood studs, wooden joists, metal studs, and electric wires in the wall. It works off a 9 volt battery (89p for one in Wilkinsons), has an LED on / off indicator, a battery low LED indicator, and an LED lights up and buzzer sounds when something is detected in the wall (shows different light for metal, voltage, and wood). It eliminates guesswork, and saves unnecessary damage... Read review

Advantages: Extremely gripping, fantastic plot, great read!
Disadvantages: I got to the end of the book :(

...If you are not aware, "Wire in the Blood" is Val McDermid's second novel in the series with Dr. Tony Hill. However, if you have not already read the first book, "The Mermaids Singing", do not let that put you off reading this book ahead of time. "Wire in the Blood" is a fantastic book which can be read as a stand-alone. Even though I found it useful reading the books in chronological order, there is enough background information in "Wire in the Blood" to let you understand the key factors of the main characters (Dr. Tony Hill - a psychologist and Home Office Profiler and Detective Inspector Carol Jordan). "Wire in the Blood" is based on a new profiling task force that is in the process of being set up to work in conjunction with the police in major investigations. At the start of the book, Dr. Tony Hill has acquired some 'members... Read review

Advantages: Its fantastically made
Disadvantages: It will steal your life

...I was a little apprehensive about The Wire, all of the reviews I have read in the press seem to rate it very highly, as did my friends in the USA who have had 3 seasons to enjoy. = The Plot = The Wire is set in Baltimore, Maryland on the East Coast of the USA and is basically a cop show, with a difference. The best way i have heard it summed up would be NYPD Blue crossed with 24. The main storyline is one of murders and drugs. What initially looks to be yet another hood murder turns into a mammoth case against an underworld kingpin by the name of Avon Barksdale. Our main character is homicide cop, alcholic, divorcee Jimmy McNulty who appears at the trial of " D " otherwise known as D'Angelo Barksdale, the nephew of our... Read review

Advantages: good film
Disadvantages: gets cheesy at times

...BARB WIRE is based on a comic book of the same name published by Dark Horse Comics. It stars Pamela Anderson as Barbara (the ‘Barb Wire’ of the title), a biker babe who owns a nightclub in the only neutral city left during the second American Civil War. The film is really just an excuse for Anderson to show off her body, and what a phenomenal body it is. There was a lot of talk in the media about how her ‘assets’ were surgically enhanced (and they have apparently since been surgically ‘de-hanced’) and this film is really just an excuse for her to show how her money was spent. As a film, it’s not good (it has pretensions to be CASABLANCA but there is no talent either in front of or behind the camera to justify this), but for voyeuristic young men everywhere it’s a delight...

Advantages: Gripping
Disadvantages: You have to concentrate initially to understand the character interaction!

...Thrilling, macabre, gruesome and shocking are all words you could use to accurately describe Wire In The Blood by Val McDermid. I hadn't realized this was in fact the second of the series written, the first being The Mermaids Sing, but it still stood alone in its own right very well indeed. The storyline is well woven. Carol Jordan, a DCI (Detective Chief Inspector) is in the small community of Seaford, having recently been promoted. She is certain there is a serial arsonist on the loose, but the team she works with aren't convinced. Tony Hill is heading off to a new training facility to do with National Offenders Profiling. While there he sets a task for his students, and one of them sees a possible cluster of events they are being asked to look for. However, Tony and the rest of the classmates don't agree and the student... Read review

Advantages: Superb overview of exceptional band
Disadvantages: May be unnecessary, since you should just buy all the albums compiled here!

...Few artists can claim to have a career as exciting and varied as the first incarnation of Wire, who release three albums in as many years before splitting. Moving through punk, post-punk, art-pop to almost avant-garde leanings, each album is unique but progressive: a cohesive journey stunning in its directness and thoughtful nature. That this compilation was originally released when Wire had reformed (for the first, but not last, time) seems grossly unfair: a reminder of a output no one could hope to top. But that's the future. As Jon Savage's sleeve notes reveal (as they should, since he's the legendary author of peerless punk chronicle, England's Dreaming), Wire first appeared on a punk compilation, release by Virgin, which compiled raggedy live takes from various bands playing the Roxy club (The CBGB's of London). These first... Read review
