**Hard & Pink - What do U think?**

Advantages: new concept
Disadvantages: ????

...I am working my way through the Lush website and all of their great hand made products. I am enjoying using and reviewing all the thing I have bought. My bank manager however is not enjoying this as much!!! After Using nearly all the products that I had put aside for Christmas pressies I can honestly say I feel no guilt in having to buy everyone's presents for a second time. This is because I have been able to try out some really good items that I will continue to use. The more unusual the item the more I want to try it (I have just ordered their Black toothpaste). This Hard Water shampoo from Lush Certainly sounded strange to me as I have never before come across a shampoo that is in a solid form. Price and Packaging ------------------------- I paid a mere £2.95 for a 100 gram bar of this shampoo. Compared to...

Think Thinkpad

Advantages: Speedy, Robust, Good graphics card, Connectivity
Disadvantages: Not the prettiest of designs, Annoying keyboard layout w/ no Windows key and Fn/Ctrl key placement

...at a time and more smoothly the machine can run. Despite the specification, mine actually came with a whopping 1GB (1024MB) of memory, which is brilliant as it has Microsoft Windows XP Professional run and I personally wouldn't want to use XP with anything less than 512MB of RAM. Mine may have been upgraded by the previous owner though. It has a 14" screen and unlike a lot of the up-to-date laptops, it is not a widescreen, which is just as well as I think it's more suitable for doing office tasks. Widescreens are better for watching films and stuff so is not necessary on the T41. It runs on a resolution of 1024 x 768, which is quite standard with15" monitors. The hard drive is only 40GB and although it is very small by today's standards, this is sufficient for web surfing, word processing and spreadsheets and even the odd Power...

Die Hard

Advantages: Brucieeee! :-D
Disadvantages: Some acting isnt wonderful...

...Love this film :-p And not only because its got a VERY sexy Bruce Willis running around!!!! The film has been on TV alot recently, possibly promoting the new Die Hard 4.0 film, and I was (forced!!) to watch it with my husband, I didn't want to...its not my kind of film, but when we watched it, I found it amazing!!! Yes some of the acting of the foreign men (Karl), isn't wonderful, but other than that, the film is amazing! The story line is gripping, the characters are played wonderfully by the actors, and theres the right amount of comic factors in there to make it light hearted whilst still been a good action film! The basic storyline is that of a police agent who goes to see his wife and kids who he lives apart from in new york for christmas, but when he is at the office block she works in, all hell breaks loose and a huge...

Review of Die Hard (DVD)

The Hard Way

Advantages: Great plot and good pace to the book
Disadvantages: predictable

...Background: I always believe you can't judge an author on just one book. Recently, I read Lee Child's 'One Shot', which I enjoyed. So I was keen to try a second one by this author to confirm or alter my opinion of his work. About the author: Lee Child was born in Coventry in 1954. He had a successful career at Granada Television for many years before redundancy led him to a new and successful life for him and his family in America. He has now written 11 thrillers with the same charismatic hero in Jack Reacher. About the book: Jack Reacher is sitting outside a Coffee Shop in New York, when he notices a man walk across the street and get into a Mercedes parked opposite him. He thinks nothing of this seemingly normal event. Until the following evening while in the same shop a stranger is more than interested in his...

Review of The Hard Way - Lee Child

A safe haven from thinking too hard

Advantages: easy to read, fast-paced, vaguely fun
Disadvantages: utter nonsense

...beyond that there was nothing to recommend this book for me at all. The mysterious subject wasn't all that mysterious - and even without recognising the word 'Ouroboros', I think there are more than enough clues to figure out what the 'Holy Grail' of The Sanctuary is, long before Khoury gets round to his (not so) big revelation. Along the way, there's plenty of medical hokum thrown in, based in just a tiny bit of fact - however, unlike The Da Vinci Code (I can't have been the only one who googled for an image of The Last Supper to see if Dan Brown was waffling utterly!), I wasn't even tempted to find out how much was truth and what was hyperbole - in fact, I can't even remember what the bits may have even started a bit of research, as I dismissed it all as nonsense instantly. There's a relatively decent sense of atmosphere, but the scenery...

Review of The Sanctuary - Raymond Khoury

hard to get

Advantages: great product
Disadvantages: expensive

...suitable for al hair types and as like all Bedhead products it has a great fruity smell, in my opinion a watermelon fragrance to it, which is great especially if you hair needs a little refreshing. I use this product when I am styling my hair so that I can put it up and know that it will stay in position and not all fall out which is great as I have blonde layered hair and it is not easy to get the right colour hair grips to keep my hair in place without them being visible. So tigi hard to get is the best product for this. This is a great product and at £9.00 approximately I think it is well worth it, I do not wear my hair up everyday and you really need a small amount per use so this product lasts a long time which in my opinion makes it value for money. If you used it everyday this would be quite an expensive product to use daily....

Hard News, easily forgettable

Advantages: Easy reading
Disadvantages: Poor storyline

...Hard News is written by Jeffery Deaver, who is probably best known for his Lincoln Rhymes series, the most famous of which was The Bone Collector which was made into a film starring Denzel Washington. The book is about a young woman who is working in the news room of Network News, when she receives a packet containing a video from an inmate found guilty of a murder for which he has constantly pleaded his innocence. After watching the video Rune cannot help but believe the man, his plea has hit a nerve and she wants to tell his story to the world. In order to do so, Rune must convince the anchor of the station?s current affairs broadcast that it would be a worthy cause. The anchor (Piper Sutton) is unimpressed at first, until she discovers the man in question is the very man who was convicted of murdering her boss and Network News...

Hard Candy - Madonna

Advantages: Some good songs
Disadvantages: Some not so good songs

...predecessors. This is to be the second single to be lifted from the album (released in the UK on 14th July 2008). Like a breath of fresh air this is one of my favourite tracks from Hard Candy and is much more like the Madonna that I know and love. Miles Away has wonderful lyrics which leave you thinking about the state of Madonna's marriage. This is quite a slow song but it is not a ballad. On Hard Candy there are no ballads but Miles Away and later on with Devil Wouldn't Recognize You are the closest that this album gets to a ballad. Miles Away is a standout track for me and one of the songs that I have listened to a lot. She's Not Me is a song about Madonna Wannabees. It has been said that this could even be about Britney Spears who has previously worked with Madonna and was of course the former lover of Justin Timberlake. Here Madonna...

Review of Hard Candy - Madonna

Has it been 'A Hard Day's Night'?!

Advantages: Some of the Beatles' best love songs and a quirky album
Disadvantages: It's all a bit 'samey'; if you don't like the early Beatles stuff, you won't like this

...SEEMS TO BE RIGHT...? (Lyric from ?A Hard Day?s Night?) With the title track opening the album, it?s practically impossible not to think of the opening scenes of the film ? who can forget the lads running away from trillions of screaming fan-girls? Seeking a powerful way to begin the album was tricky business; an up-tempo number was undeniably on the cards and to really break into the urgency of the bands dash from cars to a train, the impressive opening chord ? provided on a 12 stringed guitar by Harrison ? began both the soundtrack and the film. ?A Hard Day?s Night? is mainly a Lennon composition who, after hearing Ringo?s ?malapropism? (if that story is indeed true), raced home to start work on the song - there was said to be a little bit of competition between him and McCartney as to who could come up with the movie?s title track. One...

Review of Hard Day's Night, A (Original Soundtrack) - Beatles (The)

Hard Jagged Edge

Advantages: Smooth ballads, Vocals
Disadvantages: A couple of weaker links

...**Introduction** Hard is the fourth album from Jagged Edge released in 2003. The album features collaborations with the likes of Big Boi from Outkast aswell as Street Katz And Woonie on the remix of "They aint J" and Major Damage on Girls Gone Wild. 1. They Ain't JE This is the introduction to the album, the track is about having confidence in yourself that you have something that other people can't offer. As I mention later this original version isnt as good as the remix. That is a shame. 2. Walked Outta Heaven This track has a gorgeous feel to it. It starts softly then the beat comes in and showcases their distinctive Jagged Edge ballad. Superb vocals all around and one of their best songs. The vocal harmonies are amazing. 3. Girls Gone Wild Featuring Major Damage This track is about meeting some girl on spring...
