Steampunk
When wealth and charm fail… and airship and the gods prevail.
Chenda Frost lived as a spectator in her own life until the murder of her recluse war hero husband. Caught in a mystery about her destiny, she boards an airship with Geologist Candice Mortimer for an adventure in the air, across a desert, through a mountain and under the sea. Along the way, she loses everything she’s ever known, but gains true friendship and a formidable gift from the gods. A ripping good yarn!

Cult Film
Wolverine, fan favourite of the X-Men universe in both comic books and film, gets his own movie vehicle with X-Men Origins: Wolverine, a tale that reaches way, way back into the hairy mutant’s story. Somewhere in the wilds of northwest Canada in the early 1800s, two boys grow up amid violence: half-brothers with very special powers. Eventually they will become the near-indestructible warriors (and victims of a super-secret government program) known as Wolverine and Sabretooth, played respectively by Hugh Jackman (returning to his role) and Liev Schreiber (new to the scene). It helps enormously to have Schreiber, an actor of brawny skills, as the showiest villain; the guy can put genuine menace into a vocal inflection or a shift of the eyes. Danny Huston is the sinister government operative whose experiments keep pulling Wolverine back in, Lynn Collins is the woman who shares a peaceful Canadian co-existence with our hero when he tries to drop out of the program, and Ryan Reynolds adds needed humour, at least for a while.
The fast-paced early reels give an entertaining kick-off to the Wolverine saga, only to slow down when a proper plot must be put together–but isn’t that perpetually the problem with origin stories? And despite a cool setting, the grand finale is a little hemmed in by certain plot essentials that must be in place for the sequels, which may be why characters do nonsensical things. So, this one is fun while it lasts, if you’re not looking for a masterpiece, or an explanation for Wolverine’s facial grooming.

SwapSmoking wants to bring you a much healthier smoking experience. You will also save a lot of money depending on how much you smoke. For example, if you smoke 20 conventional cigarettes per day, you will save around £38 per week. The starter pack contains 10 disposable cartridges which will last for approximately the equivalent of 100 cigarettes. Our electronic cigarettes (or e-cigarettes) taste and feel just like tobacco cigarettes yet are completely smoke and tar free. They also come in a variety of nicotine levels from high to extra high. The cigarettes themselves are exactly the same size as tobacco cigarettes. The “smoking” sensation you’ll experience is just like that of a real cigarette, but without all the adverse side effects. E Cigarette Smoking is a more cost-efficient way to smoke and our e-cigarettes can be enjoyed in most public areas, even where regular cigarettes are prohibited. Try out smokeless e-cigarettes and see why thousands are giving up their traditional cigarettes.

The dual laser alignment helps you line up your shot assuring you that you don’t miss a single captivating moment no matter where it’s placed.
HD
The Contour GPS captures beautiful 1080p video. It utilizes a 135º wide-angle lens that delivers a true high quality image that captures all the action with minimal distortion and no fish-eye. It records Full HD in all its glory.
We provide several different camera settings so that you can get the shot that best fits your activity. Choose between 3 resolutions, 2 frame rates, and a still photo mode so that you can get the best shot.
- Full HD 1080p (1920 x1080 @ 30 fps) to capture those awesome moments in the highest resolution available.
- Tall HD 960p (1280 x 960 @ 30fps) for those sports like surfing that are better suited to a taller image.
- Action HD 720p (1280 x 720 @ 60 fps) when frame rate is more important than resolution. The perfect setting to capture the fastest action. It reduces blur and rolling shutter effect.
- Contour 720p (1280 x 720 @30 fps). When space on your card is at a premium and you need to record that last epic adventure. This setting takes it easy on your memory.
- Still Photo. When you want to freeze frame the action, the photo mode is your perfect shot. You can pick from 6 rates (1, 2, 5, 10, 30, or 60 sec) to best capture that moment.
Audio
Developed by a real rocket scientist, the built-in omni-directional microphone captures the rich sounds of the ride while keeping the wind noise to a minimum. Using AAC Audio Compression the front facing microphone assures you that you will hear every whisper or scream.
Storage
The compact and lightweight design principle was carried throughout every detail of the Contour GPS. The locking back door keeps the internal Micro SD card safe so that it can capture hours of HD video content. When expanded up to 32 GB, it will record over 8 hours of HD content on one card.
Software

Really good value set, 3 Nov 2010
This review is from: Toshiba 19AV713B 19-inch Widescreen LCD TV with Freeview and HD Ready (Electronics)
Having looked at many products in equally as many stores I decided on the 19AV from Amazon. I already have a 37″ Toshiba LCD which I’m totally impressed with so I was confident to go with their current small screen offering.
Typically it arrived quickly using super saver and was in perfect condition.
The TV was simple to set-up and within moments I had access to all the Freeview channels I’d expect. The 720p resolution is perfect for the bedroom and is HD ready should I decide to connect to Sky’s HD channels in future but with standard resolution broadcasts the picture is perfect.
Unlike some of the own brand I’ve seen on the high street I bought this TV as it has 2 HDMI connections to take a bluray player or games console. I did connect my bluray player to test the connections and the picture was excellent as I’d expected.
I liked the USB functionality which I think will be useful if I need to look at pictures off a USB stick in future.
Overall 5/5 from me for this cracking little TV.

A little belter, 24 Nov 2010
This review is from: Toshiba 19AV713B 19-inch Widescreen LCD TV with Freeview and HD Ready (Electronics)
I bought this TV to go in my kitchen. My old set was fine but it had a separate Freeview box which had suddenly decided to start rebooting itself at random times, usually during say the big reveal at the end of an Agatha Christie film (“and the murder was…” Blink!) so I decided to get an all-in-one set, and this one was perfect.
Once the box is opened you’ll find the TV swathed in wrappings and two chunks of polystyrene, a simple but pleasing remote control (with batteries), a power lead, and a thin instruction leaflet. With regard to connectivity the specification outlined on Amazon is accurate, but it doesn’t say that there is also a single scart socket. The controls for the set are on the right-hand edge, and there is an attached base which can be swung into position, locked to prevent movement, or removed to allow wall mounting.
Switch the set on and it enters setup mode. It asks a few simple questions, tunes itself into the Freeview channels, and a couple of minutes later it’s all done. You can press the menu key at any time and retune if desired, and there are a plethora of settings you can fiddle with regarding sound, screen, software updates and so on.
The screen is lovely, providing a crisp, bright image, and the sound is clean and clear, but if you find it a little tinny you can boost the base or alter the treble.
All in all it looks great, works well, and was a bargain at the price. A great set for the kitchen or bedroom.

Great Toshiba TV, 11 Nov 2010
This review is from: Toshiba 19AV713B 19-inch Widescreen LCD TV with Freeview and HD Ready (Electronics)
This TV replaces a 20 year old 14″ panasonic which had given terrific service as our only TV so was anxious about this new one. No need to have been, this Toshiba was a dream to set up with excellent picture and sound. Amazing value for money. Also can’t get used to how little space it takes up compared with the old one which was 15″ deep !!
