Ultra Pro Deck Protectors:
As some of you will now know, I am a huge fan of the collectable card game, (CCG), Magic the Gathering, (MTG). Basically MTG is a game that requires you to build a ?deck? of 60 cards to play against other people?s decks. The cards can be very expensive but they are easily damaged by shuffling and of course the dreaded ?hand grease?. Once again though the great people at Ultra Pro have a product that is perfect for protecting your cards.
Now you may think card sleeves are a simple creature; made of plastic and big enough to fit a card in, job done, but in reality it?s not quite that simple. Cheap deck protectors, (they cost about £1.00 for a hundred), are often slightly too big and become oddly baggy with use. This is a problem as it makes it hard to hold the cards and especially hard to shuffle them. Ultra ...
I suppose this review; will take me back to the days when I was totally hooked on the children's channel nickelodeon. Gosh they really don't make TV programmes like they did back in the 1990's. One of my favourite programmes which aired on Nickelodeon was called Sister, Sister. I actually grew up watching this programme, and although you may think straight way it's a girl's programme, I strongly disagree. It was more a programme for anyone aged between 6 to 19, of any race and any gender. They dealt with topics that any teenager could relate to on a level everyone could understand; it was a shame that they finally ended it. But here's a review about the show itself, the characters, and some of the storylines they dealt with. Hopefully this will bring back some old memories for some people.

Advantages: Great Forehand, Simple Game and Consistent Disadvantages: None
Well. Where do you start? Roger Federer has the potential to be the Pele of tennis. He may become the greatest ever player to hold a tennis racket. He already has three Grand Slam titles to his name and in the future he should add many more.
Roger Federer is a rather unique tennis player. In many ways, his game and style of play is so simple, which makes mistakes minimal and makes succes at the highest level much easier. However, his forehand is probably the best in the world of mens tennis and possibly the most unique. He has incredible supination around his wrist joint which allows him to generate incredible pace and power, as well unreal angles and accuracy. With this power and accuracy, Federer does have a huge amount of consistency. He doesn't give away many points to his opponents, making beating him that bit more difficult ...

Album Notes
Recording information: Excello Recording, Brooklyn, New York (2006). The once straight-up raucous Brooklyn, New York, trio the Rogers Sisters hit upon a seamless blend of punk swagger and new wave austerity for their third full-length, 2006's THE INVISIBLE DECK. All the key elements are there--the fierce backbeat, angular fuzzed-out guitars, strategically placed synth lines, and multi-layered guy/girl choruses--on songs like "The Light" and "Why Won't You." And while the Rogers Sisters might not be making the most inventive music around, there's enough variety (the dark, lurching "Your Littlest World") and vitality (the Feelies-esque "The Clock") happening to keep things interesting. It's on "You Undecided," however, that the Rogers Sisters really come up with something special, nailing every component necessary to make what could be the perfect retro-rock song for the year 2006.
Album Reviews
Mojo (p.105) - 4 stars out of 5 -- "With siblings Laura and Jennifer Rogers on drums, guitar and vocals, and honorary brother Miyuki Furtado singing and playing bass, the Sisters generate the kind of urgency you'd expect from people tunnelling out of Death Row." Uncut (p.119) - 3 stars out of 5 -- "[T]heir sound is now driven by a dark undertow, with heavy psych-rock and muscly R&B inflections." Magnet (p.110) - "[They] carve out a niche within the neo-post-punk scene that's wholly distinct from, and perhaps more compelling than, top-tiered torchbearers Interpol, Yeah Yeah Yeahs and the Kills....A taut, 40-minute affair with no filler."
